However, early attempts to do so soon made librarians aware of the importance of broadening objectives, especially after witnessing the reality of indigenous peoples in Latin America. Even if most of these experiences are now over, some of them are still in place -and all of them have something to teach to future generations of LIS professionals, both inside and outside the continent. This paper collects, systematizes and presents some of them
